yup2 this is what the guys at SC teaching me to do. they said its the proper way.

wht I understand its because they key will moniter the trend how we start and such. worst case if not done proper start there motherboard will prevent engine from starting which he said quite common problem they've been ask to deal with. wht they do after is just resetting the motherboard.
reply to earlier post about helicopter sound when breaking. this is due to disk brake not even. they said its temperature related hot - cold - hot....
burning slight smells after stress with high velocity, the sc guy said its normal so.

beware its not adviced to stress the car if you have not reached 1000km yet.

mine just 40km left biggrin.gif
*
Okay, will follow the method you guys gave. So the helicopter sound I can just wait till the 1k service right?They'll fix it at that time? Hopefully the burning smell goes away. Haha, I know, but itchy that day after taking the car and going on LEKAS back to Seremban. Wanted to test the S mode. I already 250km in 2 days. LOL. End of the month 1k I guess.

Also guys, are you all happy with the tint that came with the car or upgraded already? The stock one feels hot, and don't have that dark stripe near the top of the windscreen. Opinions?

The stripe of tint on top of the windscreen can be added in any tint shop for RM20 or less.

But have to make sure we don't cover the sensor right?

no worries..

Car is 2 days old bro biggrin.gif

Also, guys, I was trying the 3 step method to start the engine like you guys said. How long does it take for the battery,oil and oil pressure warning light to go off? I waited for around 1 min before deciding to start the engine anyway, and they went off. I waited because I'm supposed to wait for the warning lights to off first right?

i thought it is mentioned in the manual that it is not advisable to race the engine above 120km/h for the first 1000km.
laugh.gif  nod.gif

Yep, the manual does say to avoid 120 above till 1k. Sadly already itchy when taking the car, hit 160 for a short while. rclxms.gif

Yeah, mine the three items stay on. Battery, oil and oil pressure until I start the engine.

just want to ask, is it normal sometimes, after engine started, then emergency/hazard light activated/blinks?

Haha, I was just asking this question 2 days ago. Looks like something intermittent for most people, Preve has it too. I had it once on Monday morning, haven't seen it since.

Did you get 3 years free service parts and labour? Please do update on how it goes? via voucher or key in the system.
Cheers

The SA told me he hasn't gotten the things from PROTON yet, hopefully by end of the month. Probably voucher system.

I checked with my SA, it seems that they will key into the system based on your JPJ registration date, no voucher is given.

Oh is it? I'll check with my SA as well. If they key in the system ,that'll be really good. As long as the system doesn't go down when we service. rclxub.gif

In that case I shall check again... nod.gif

Anyhow I did hear from the service centre guy that there's some catch in the 5 years free service:
- it only covers 1k, 10k, 20k, 30k, 40, 50k & 60k service (inclusive of both parts, oil & labor).
- however the oil is semi syn, means that the owner has to pay for the 5k interval service.
- but overall still a good deal since the 60k major service worth around RM1000++.

Perhaps u guys can check this out as well??  icon_idea.gif
*
I was expecting this to be honest. As long as the allow us to top up and get the fully synthetic, I'm okay. Yeah, the first major hit will be the 60k service, since we change spark plugs and CVT oil, just having that covered is worth it. laugh.gif

You need to get the voucher first from your dealer. First service they cover up to 138 if not mistaken. Lazy wanna check my voucher.

Hi,

I am sorry to hear your story. Your experience making me quite nervous in finalizing my SS.

May I know if you didn't check your unit before driving it home or you didn't found anything upon final inspection?

Every car model has some lemon units. Some of us are really happy with our cars, just a matter of visiting the right SC's for rectifying minor issues. This car can really put a smile on your face when you drive it. rclxms.gif

Looking at vincent818 reputation here, I hope I'd made the right call.

Go to the Lokatoo website and follow the instructions to update the maps on your SD card. I had the same problem when I took the car. Check if your HU is 7.26 first though, the instructions are there as well.
